What's a good way to clean wheels of brake dust? I was thinking sandpaper could work well, but I don't know...In your experience, what worked well? Also, is there anything I can do so that brake dust won't settle on the wheels as much in the future cause right now the wheels are really old and there is a really big build-up on the wheels' lip. Thanks

no, but as long as its not on there to long it wont do much to any damage.. If any thing, I would say spend a day, pull them off, take some sand paper, and a brillo pad, sand them down, then re-spray them, and then do a clear coat ... then you have nice shinny clean rims... |
